My sincere condolences to the Hatsopoulos family. I have fond memories of working for one summer during my college years as a substitute secretary at Thermo Electron Corp. when it was quite newly formed. George was a gentleman and a scholar in the truest sense. It was a privilege to have known him and his brother John.

My sincere condolensces to the Family of George Hatsopoulos, A great inventor and enterpreneur who has served as a model to many Greek engineers across the world. I grew up a few houses from where he lived in Philothei and always admired from afar his life achievements. Let his memory and accomplishments be eternal.

Prof. George Hatsopoulos was the most significant figure in the history of Thermodynamics. Together with Keenan but mainly he, they formulated the "Stable State Principle", which is the most accurate statement of the II Law of Thermodynamics. Greece should be proud of her great child, a scientist of the rank of Newton and Einstein.
My condolences to his family.

Dearest George,

Such a long history has gone on between us, from one generation to the next. You collected, entertained, promoted and inspired all the people you loved, admired and trusted. You instilled creativity and vision. I remember you and your generation in your homes, convening, enjoying, and discussing often groundbreaking ideas. I hope your homes served you well and thank you for entrusting my family and I to provide a place for comfort and hopefully one that enabled great thoughts. We will miss you and don't worry Daphne is in good hands!

Kalo sou taxidi!
